International Bra Size Converter & Sister Size Guide

The International Bra Size Converter & Sister Size Calculator calculates accurate intimate apparel measurements across US/UK (34B), Korea/Japan (75B), European EU (75B), French (90B), and Australian (12B) sizing systems.

By evaluating underbust band perimeter and full overbust cup dimensions, it translates measurements into international equivalents and generates Sister Sizes for custom band-to-cup tension calibration.

Clinical studies show that over 80% of women wear incorrect bra sizes, resulting in mastalgia, trapezius spasm, underwire pinching, and lateral tissue displacement.

Overbust-Underbust Delta & Cup Volume Conservation

Cup volume is conserved across sister sizes by counter-shifting band and cup parameters.

Circumference Delta & Sister Sizing LawMathematical Formulation
Delta = Full Overbust - Snug Underbust • AA Cup: < 10.0 cm (< 4.0 in) • A Cup: 10.0 - 12.5 cm (4.0 - 5.0 in) • B Cup: 12.5 - 15.0 cm (5.0 - 6.0 in) • C Cup: 15.0 - 17.5 cm (6.0 - 7.0 in) • D Cup: 17.5 - 20.0 cm (7.0 - 8.0 in) • E / DD: 20.0 - 22.5 cm (8.0 - 9.0 in) • F / DDD: 22.5 - 25.0 cm (9.0 - 10.0 in) Sister Size Conservation: • +1 Band Size, -1 Cup Letter (Looser): 34B -> 36A • -1 Band Size, +1 Cup Letter (Firmer): 34B -> 32C

32C, 34B, and 36A all encapsulate identical breast tissue volume. If a 34B cup fits well but pinches your ribs, 36A relieves pressure without cup gaping.

👉 Baseline size is US 34B (KR/EU 75B). If the band feels tight, sister size 36A provides equal volume with greater ribcage comfort.

How to Use

11. Measure Snug Underbust

Measure directly beneath breast tissue against the ribcage with relaxed breathing (in cm or inches).

22. Measure Full Overbust

Lean forward 45 degrees and measure across the fullest part of the bust (nipple apex) without compressing tissue.

33. Review International Labeling

View your exact size across US/UK, Asian, European, French, and Australian standards.

44. Check Sister Size Alternatives

Review Sister Sizes (band up/cup down or band down/cup up) to adjust ribcage tightness.

Post-Weight Loss Sizing

Updating from 36B to 32D after dropping 6 cm of underbust circumference, preserving breast cup tissue in a firmer band

💡 Professional Lingerie Fitting Guidelines

✓ Band Carries 85% of Weight

Support originates from the band, not shoulder straps; if your back band rides up toward your neck, size down in the band.

✓ Fit on Loosest Outer Hook

New bras should fit snugly on the outer hook so you can adjust inward as the elastane naturally relaxes over time.

✓ Lean 45 Degrees for Accuracy

Leaning forward 45 degrees prevents soft or post-nursing breast tissue from flattening against the chest wall.

⚠️ Common Pitfalls & Mistakes to Avoid

❌ Measuring over a heavily padded push-up bra
✅ Pads artificially add 3 to 5 cm, yielding cups that are 1 to 2 sizes too large; measure over an unlined bra or bare skin.
❌ Increasing band size when cups overflow
✅ Keep the band snug to your ribcage and increase cup depth (e.g., move from 34B to 34C or 34D).
❌ Assuming US, UK, and European cup letters are identical above D
✅ US sizing uses DD/DDD while UK uses DD/E/F/FF; always verify the brand's country of origin.

6 Q&As

Sister Sizes are alternate bra sizes that share the exact same physical cup volume despite having different band circumferences. When you increase the band size by one step, you must decrease the cup letter by one step to preserve volume (e.g., 32C, 34B, and 36A all hold identical breast volume). If your cup fits nicely but the band pinches your ribcage, trying your sister size up (36A) provides comfort without empty cups.
